Sources & methods
Where facts come from. How they are published.
Transparent sources come before speed.
Sources before summaries
We prioritize original announcements, regulatory documents, research and verifiable material. Public facts link to sources; copies of one announcement are not independent evidence.
A check is not a publication
Automatic discovery checks every three hours in Beijing time. At this stage, verified new facts and meaningful changes appear only as standalone articles in the Food innovation brief, with original source links included in each article. An empty check does not create a filler edition.
Plans are separate from outcomes
Company statements remain attributed. Funding, performance, deployment and commercial outcomes need supporting evidence. Food safety, health claims and serious allegations require human review.
Facts remain citable
Records retain permanent identifiers. Published revisions are not silently overwritten; changes retain their reasons and sources. Chinese and English pages share facts and identifiers.
Contributions and privacy
Public submissions enter a verification queue. Sensitive operational, personal and health information is not public by default.
